Nadia Pedro Alfacinha There were feelings

There were feelings

There is still a fierce attachment to a very particular notion of England

The photographs in First Pictures were made at a time when color photography was struggling to assert itself against the authoritative black-and-white tradition

And in the beginning there was all this intense feeling of trying to reclaim from oblivion all these people
